Local Attractions

Abergavenny Castle and Museum: The castle is one of the best examples of a motte and bailey castle in Britain. Originally built approximately in 1087, it has a fascinating history, particularly the massacre of Welsh Nobles on Christmas Day 1175.

The museum is set in the grounds of a ‘ruined’ Norman castle.

The Tithe Barn of St.Mary’s Priory Church: Abergavenny’s newest visitor attraction. There is an Interpretation Centre, Learning Space, Tapestry Exhibition and Food Hall. Whatever your age there is something to interest you.

Borough Theatre: This 338 seat venue presents a year round programme of professional and community productions.

The Brecon and Monmouthshire Canal: An idyllic 35 miles of rural waterway with an abundance of wildlife to see.

A little further – approximately 20 minutes

Big Pit Mining Museum: Discover the world of coal mining on a real underground tour with an ex miner. Then explore the original colliery buildings and exhibitions. I have yet to meet any-one aged 5 to 85 who have not enjoyed this experience.

Raglan Castle: Built close to the England - Wales border it saw fierce combat and bloodshed. It is undoubtedly the finest medieval fortress in Britain and is well worth a visit.

A little further again – approximately an hour

St. Fagan's Welsh Folk Museum, Cardiff: There are houses of all types, a chapel, church, farmstead, school and many more buildings at St. Fagan's All have been carefully taken down from their original sites, each stone being numbered, and then painstakingly moved to St. Fagan's and rebuilt right down to the last detail.

Dan-Yr-Ogof Show Caves: Described as the most spectacular show cave complex in Western Europe. There are three caves to explore, an iron age farm, dinosaur park, shire horse centre, dry ski slope and much more.

Ystradfellte Caves & Waterfalls: There are several Water falls to be seen as well as caves and don't miss the Waterfall that you can walk behind, Scwd Yr Eira.

Activities

Walking: Abergavenny is an ideal area for walking. Pyscodlyn is situated in the picturesque Usk Valley and walks from the campsite suit all abilities. Gentle strolls can be taken along the river or you can venture up into the Black Mountains. The Sugar Loaf Mountain can be reached from the campsite, or for those less able, a 10 minute car journey takes you to the open hill and you have a multitude of paths to explore. The town is surrounded by seven hills - plenty of variety for your walks!

You can reach the heart of the Brecon Beacons within half an hour by car.

Fishing: The R.Usk is a haven for fishermen. You are able to buy day tickets from Pyscodlyn for a mile and a half stretch along one bank. This is for trout or salmon. There are reservoirs within easy travelling distance and various other parts of the river to explore. Coarse fishing is also available on the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal

Cycling: There are so many tracks, lanes and paths to explore for the mountain bike enthusiasts. We are happy to provide you with routes. Abergavenny hosted the National British Cycling Championships in 2009, the ladies race being won by Nicole Cook. Cycle hire can be arranged from Pyscodlyn Caravan Site

Golf: The county of Monmouthshire is the home to at least twelve 18 hole golf courses. Abergavenny has 2 – The Monmouthshire and Wernddu. Within half an hour is the Celtic Manor Resort, venue of the 2010 Ryder Cup and The Rolls of Monmouth plus several lesser known courses. Ken (owner of Pyscodlyn) is a keen golfer and more than happy to help with any info regarding courses.

Riding:Within half an hour by car there are at least 4 licensed trekking centres. What better way to explore the Black Mountains and Brecon Beacons than on horseback

Paragliding / paramotoring: For those of you with a sense of adventure, explore some of the area with a tandem flight!!
